Deductions & credits

@DaveF1006 Thanks again! I did have my income entered twice.

In the “see how your numbers are adding up” breakdown in the right hand column it shows that I’m not getting any credits. I’m assuming this means the foreign tax credit is not being applied. Which I guess is because I cannot get a credit for taxes paid on income that is excluded? I’m still confused how system this is supposed to be helpful for someone who made under 90K usd and has already paid more taxes to a foreign country (with which the US has a double taxation agreement) than I would have paid in the US. When I fix the double income issue TT now thinks I owe about $1000 in taxes to the US, but before TT thought I was getting a refund. Does this sound logical? I don't expect a refund, but I also did not expect to owe $1000.

 

Also what is an example of a deduction or expense definitely or not definitely related to foreign income (lines 2 and 3 on form 1116)? I can't find an explanation of what should be considered here.
